I certainly wasn't trying to sound rude. Just curious on how it was done and how long I should expect to wait. It had been a long time since I got an award and couldn't remember how it was done.

Nobody said anything about anyone being rude. I was just giving my opinion on the matter. There was a similar thread around the time I was putting in requests for my first awards and that's when I found out that William goes through all of the requests on his own. Since then, my attitude towards the subject has changed. I totally understand where you're coming from though as I was asking the same question back then.
